Mr. Tycoon Is Actually the Father of My Child!
Chapter 462: The Story of Me and Your Mom

Chapter 462: Chapter 462: The Story of Me and Your Mom

All around was silent, the trees blocking the sunlight, casting dappled golden threads.

Mi Qihua looked at the silent Lin Qian, took a step forward, and sighed, "Qianqian, you really look like your mother."

Lin Qian’s red lips were slightly pursed, fingers interlaced, and she looked ahead without speaking.

Mi Qihua didn’t mind Lin Qian’s indifference and started speaking slowly.

"I met your mother in country F. In my youth, I was always excellent in both character and academics. In my junior year, I won an award for new talent in fashion design, which gave me the opportunity to study abroad on a public scholarship. My family wasn’t well-off at the time, so I worked part-time while studying, in a company. Your mother was in her sophomore year then, and her family wasn’t affluent either, so she worked as a translator in the same company to earn money. That’s how we met."

Mi Qihua’s thoughts drifted, recalling the past years, his clear and handsome face full of warmth and affection.

"Your mother was the most beautiful, smartest, and kindest woman I’ve ever met. I was attracted to her the moment I saw her. Similarly, perhaps because of my talent, your mother was also attracted to me. Six months later, we became a couple."

"Looking back now, those were the most passionate and joyful days of my life. Yet, I didn’t grasp them."

Mi Qihua reminisced slowly, a trace of regret flashing across his face.

"I believe many men have ambitions when they’re young. I was no exception. Once a man has love, he wants a career too, desires success in both. But in this world, how many perfect things are there? You can’t have your cake and eat it too. To gain one thing, you inevitably lose another."

And it was then that he began to have bad intentions.

Mi Qihua looked at the trees ahead, sighed, "At the time, there was a business tycoon, from my former father-in-law’s family, who took a liking to me and wanted me to marry his daughter. I wavered. I wanted my own career kingdom, to become a prominent figure in business, and with outside help, I could save decades of effort."

"Therefore, I hid it from your mother and married my ex-wife. At the time, I thought, as long as I achieved success and fame, and brought her endless wealth and glory, no matter what, she would stay by my side because she loved me. But..."

Mi Qihua paused, closed his eyes, a trace of helplessness flashing across his face.

"I underestimated your mother’s fierceness. When she heard from Dongfang Ming that I was married, she didn’t cling to me but decisively broke up with me. I panicked. After settling things in country F, I rushed to find her. But she tricked me with a fake pregnancy report, saying she was carrying another man’s child."

"At that time, I was very angry, thinking she didn’t love me at all, so I angrily returned to country F, trying to forget her completely. However, people are strange like that; what’s lost becomes more precious. Especially with feelings, losing them makes one remember even more, eventually turning into an obsession."

Mi Qihua sighed, raised his eyes to Lin Qian, his face full of guilt.

"A year later, with the help of the Yue family, my career became increasingly smooth and large in scale, and I missed your mother all the more! So, I secretly searched for her whereabouts. You were just a month old then. I thought you weren’t my child, and seeing you reminded me of your mother’s disloyalty to me. Thus, I punished her by knocking her out and taking her away, but left you behind, and even erased her memory of that year."

"Afterwards, I secretly settled her in a quiet courtyard, planning to start anew with her. But how could such self-righteous actions last long? My ex-wife learned of Man’s existence. Her personality was arrogant, and she had been influenced by her father in business since childhood, so she learned to keep a low profile. She schemed for a long time, and finally, while I was away on a business trip, set the courtyard on fire, and your mother she..."

Mi Qihua couldn’t continue, his face filled with deep self-blame.

His eyes were a bit red. He closed them, slowly calming his emotions.

After a while, he sighed deeply, looked deeply into Lin Qian’s eyes, tentatively trying to hold her hand.

"Qianqian, this is the story of your mother and me. I’m very sorry, because of my selfishness, you suffered so much. Now that I’ve found you, I will definitely make up for all the past shortcomings I owe you. Qianqian, can you forgive your father and call me dad?"

A long recollection, filled with deep repentance and apology.

A slightly rough warmth from the man’s hand spread over hers.

Instinctively, Lin Qian pulled her hand away from Mi Qihua’s grasp, pressed her lips together silently.

Still resisting, huh!

A tinge of disappointment flashed in Mi Qihua’s eyes but it quickly disappeared.

He’s not in a hurry.

At least his daughter had been found.

Lin Qian listened attentively to Mi Qihua’s narrative, unwilling to comment too much on the love of the previous generation.

But it’s undeniable, she didn’t agree with Mi Qihua’s actions.

And felt sympathy for her mother’s experience.

Such an inexplicable role as someone else’s mistress, finally even perishing in a fire...

"Is my mom really dead?"

Lin Qian finally spoke, her gaze sweeping towards Mi Qihua.

Mi Qihua’s heart was stirred, he paused for a moment, shook his head.

"I thought she was dead, but we didn’t find her body at the time, so I believe she’s still alive!"

He’d been convincing himself mentally that Lu Xiaoman hadn’t died, and just now, Chu Yelin confirmed that he had rescued Man from the fire.

Therefore, he even more believed that Man is still alive!

Her mother is still alive!

She hopes to believe in this reality too.

Lin Qian pressed her lips, looking at her biological father, "I won’t forgive you easily because your actions were too selfish. Unless you find Mom! If Mom is still alive and she forgives you, then I’ll forgive you."

She doesn’t want to dwell too much on past events.

The love world of the previous generation, she’s not concerned with it.

She just wants to know if her mother is still alive.

If she’s alive now, where exactly is she?

Why hasn’t she come back to look for her, is it because she lost her memory?

Her poor mother, hasn’t she remembered having a child?

"Alright, Qianqian, please rest assured, I will do everything in my power, using all my relationships, to find out your mother’s whereabouts!"

The daughter finally relented!

Whether it’s Man or his daughter, his greatest wish in this life is to earn their forgiveness!

Mi Qihua was somewhat excited, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

He quickly calmed himself, smiled and said, "Qianqian, let me tell you more about your mother’s youth! You didn’t know, your mother was so outstanding..."

Over there, two tall figures were tangled together at this moment.

One kick, one punch, each move as fierce as can be.

Finally, the two ended up lying on the ground, looking up at the sky with their bruised and swollen faces, gasping for air.
